5th Sunday of Lent - A (March 29, 2020)


“Untie him and let him go”

Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

Lazarus was ill.
His sisters sent word to Jesus saying, “Master, the one you love is ill.”

When Jesus saw Mary and the people weeping, “he became perturbed and deeply troubled.”

“And Jesus wept.”

So the Jews said, “See how he loved him.”

With the current health crisis that our world is facing, let us spend some time meditating on these words.  Let us live the love that Jesus has for us, which is revealed in a unique way when we suffer.

“If you believe, you will see the glory of God.”

We know the rest of the story. 

But not just the story of Lazarus.

More importantly, we know the story of Jesus, who is the Resurrection and life.
